Master Craftsman of the Pokemon World

Light Moss quickly carved out a bracelet and, according to the information from "Ancient Awakening Craft," engraved corresponding move inscriptions on it.

"That should do it."

The Pokémon curiously gathered around to watch as Light Moss held the bracelet high, and the Unown began to use Awakening Power.

Mysterious light surrounded the Unown, and then the inscriptions on the bracelet gradually lit up!

Natural energy was gathered, transformed into the shape of flames, and then sealed into the ancient bracelet!

The ancient bracelet was activated!

Various thoughts also appeared in Light Moss's mind, converging into information.

『Craft: [Ancient Bracelet] - Move Bracelet.』

『Description: One of the ancient items used by Pokémon long ago to learn moves. It can enhance the wearer's mental power to a certain extent. The bracelet can absorb corresponding moves and store them. This bracelet is currently empty.』

『Corresponding Move: Encore.』

Light Moss looked at Lilligant: "Use Encore on this bracelet."

"Lilli~" Hisuian Lilligant waved her leaf-like arms on both sides of her body, and two beams of light seemed to appear beside the bracelet, directly enveloping it. The next moment, the two beams of light gradually dimmed until they disappeared, while the inscriptions on the bracelet gradually lit up, eventually slowly returning to calm.

The information about the ancient bracelet in Light Moss's eyes changed.

『Teachable Move: Encore.』

"Success! A TM has been created!"

An ancient bracelet version of the TM. Although it is not as efficient in learning as Silph Co.'s discs, this bracelet can also enhance the wearer's mental power. For trainers with psychic or spiritual powers, this item is incredibly practical!

Just in time, a client from Unova had asked me about psychic glass whistles and hoped that my store could stock some items with a bit more artistry.

"If the bracelet is carved beautifully, it can also be considered a work of art. After all, it's a 'Psychic Bracelet'."

"The selling points of the ancient bracelet, besides psychic power, are that if it's paired with some rare moves, it will still have a market even among ordinary customers. As for the price, because it only needs to be inlaid with a little bit of ancient rock, and the rest can be made with ordinary jade and stone, it doesn't need to be set too high. It should showcase the natural beauty of the jade and express its mystery through inscriptions."

In subsequent Pokémon generations, some unique moves were added. Only a small number of Pokémon can learn these moves through normal leveling. Most Pokémon that want to learn these types of moves must rely on new TMs.

The most well-known example of this is "Body Press!"

Even Zamazenta, strong as the Shield King, cannot learn Body Press in the Galar region. Even when it comes to its loyal Paldea region, it has to obediently use a TM to master this move!

In addition, similar well-known moves include Dual Wingbeat, Psychic Noise, Dragon Cheer, Heavy Slam, and even Draco Meteor! These cannot be learned through leveling but only through TMs or "Move Tutors!"

And the similar moves that he has on hand include—Light Moss first thought of:

"Ice Spinner!"

Hisuian Lilligant's Ice Spinner is also a rare move. In the wild, only Walrein and Cetitan can learn it through leveling, and other Pokémon that want to learn this move must pay a certain learning cost.

In Light Moss's view, moves learned through leveling in reality are likely equivalent to an innate ability. That is, these Pokémon using these moves is an inherent talent. They don't need extra learning and slowly or suddenly master them, while Pokémon without this talent instinct must actively learn.

Of course, if you have to say it, exclusive moves are also quite rare, such as Lilligant's Victory Dance. However, this move can only be learned by Hisuian Lilligant, or... another Smeargle? After all, Smeargle can theoretically learn all the moves of all Pokémon through "Sketch!"

"Pollen Puff seems to be one too. In the Pokémon world, only Ribombee can learn it. It used to be considered its exclusive move."

"Weather Ball is also a rare move, but because the Weather Institute in Hoenn has thoroughly researched Castform, the TM for this move has already been developed."

"There's also Grass Knot and Grassy Terrain... Grass Knot used to be considered Carnivine's exclusive move, but a TM was later developed. As for Grassy Terrain, the TM for this move probably doesn't exist yet!"

"Oh right, and Grassy Glide! This TM will definitely sell well in the Galar region!"

Speaking of Grassy Glide, isn't the most suitable Pokémon for it Rillaboom, one of the so-called "Battle Five Emperors, Tiger, Ape, Bear, Leopard, Hair"! It also needs a TM to master this move!

Light Moss inventoried the rare moves that Hisuian Lilligant had mastered, and then looked at Doublade.

He stared at Doublade, and Doublade stared back.

"Yowu~" Doublade offered an opinion.

Of course, it's Psycho Cut!

"No, there's already a TM for that move on the market. But your Psycho Cut is quite special, so maybe it could sell well too?"

Light Moss waved his hand. Doublade's two eyes rolled, and suddenly it changed its mind!

There are already many on the market?

Then it won't be sold!

Its Psycho Cut is a unique skill. What if other Pokémon learn it? No sale!

"Yopu~! (Shadow Sneak~!)"

"Common stuff. Even Impidimp on the roadside knows it, and even Spinarak in the forest that idly spits silk knows it."

"Yowu~! (Assurance~!)"

"You might not believe it, but even Diglett knows this move."

"Yowuwu~! (Brick Break!)"

"The signature skill of Fighting-type masters. Even human martial artists can use it."

"Yopu!!! (Autotomize!!!)"

"This is a bit rare, but many common Steel-type Pokémon in various regions can learn it, and in terms of effect, there's a cheap alternative, Agility, so it's not very distinctive. Of course, your Autotomize is dropping the scabbard, which is very characteristic and your personal style."

Doublade's two eyes narrowed!

Does Doublade not have any unique skills to show off!

I think you're just targeting me!

Light Moss was also a little helpless.

Doublade's move pool really doesn't have anything unique, but it does have quite a few practical ordinary moves, but don't even think about high-power STAB moves.

The highest power move it can learn is Close Combat. Light Moss thinks that Doublade's usual practice of "Continuous Cancel Combo" is already a bit like Close Combat.

An ordinary combo isn't that outrageous!

"Na?"

Turtwig called out.

Light Moss raised a finger: "Oh! Turtwig, your unique move is Shell Smash! There's no corresponding TM for this move on the market, but its learning pool is very narrow. Most of the Pokémon that can learn it must have a shell, but that's not important!"

"What's important is that if your Shell Smash is made into a TM, then other Turtwig, Grotle, and Torterra can also learn it! This is a very important move for new trainers in the Sinnoh region who choose Turtwig!"

"And in the Galar region, there's a Pokémon called Chewtle that also has difficulty mastering Shell Smash, so this TM should also sell well in Galar!"

Hearing Light Moss's words, Turtwig's two eyes suddenly lit up!

"Na~!"

Does the weak me actually have such an important and powerful move!

I didn't expect that the "Shell Smash" that I was born with is such a powerful thing!

"Yowu~?!" Doublade suddenly felt unbalanced. It glared with both eyes, and ghostly energy gathered on the hilt, showing an angry mark, scaring Turtwig!

This little turtle has a unique skill!

Why doesn't I, as an initial Pokémon, have any characteristics!

I'm really being looked down upon!

"Actually, you do have some. As long as you learn 'Sacred Sword,' this move can only be learned by Honedge, Doublade, Aegislash, Gallade, and Oshawott among ordinary Pokémon... The other Pokémon that can learn this move are not ordinary Pokémon! This move can ignore the opponent's ability changes and deal damage, so it's a very powerful move!"

"As for King's Shield after evolution, it's your exclusive move, and others can't learn it."

Oh? Doublade perked up.

Is it a move called "Sacred Sword!"

So the story that the sword that slays a dragon will become a sacred sword is not a story, but a real move!

"That's right. A thousand years ago, probably no one knew this move..." Light Moss pondered: "So, are you going to learn this move, using the Arceus statue? By the way, Sacred Sword is a Fighting-type move."

Doublade's eyes sharpened, but soon it hesitated again.

"Yowu~"

It would be good if I learned it, but what if I didn't learn it and learned other moves instead? Wouldn't that be bad!

The Arceus statue is very useful, but now doesn't seem to be the time to use it. Doublade decided to consider it for a few more days, or... wait until it's close to evolution before using it!

"Yopu!"

That's right, that's a Fighting-type move, right!

So, as long as I keep practicing "Brick Break," will I be able to master the secret of Sacred Sword?
